    That is absurd and awesome

    I can't wait for when it kicks in accidently when you don't want it to... push you in front of an oncoming truck let's say.

    And didn't they solve the problem by adding the huge training wheels?? They're functional AND fashionable chick magnets...
    (Yes I know they are just a safety item for testing):p

    As I mentioned to Paul d'Orleans on Facebook; if it's a step toward speederbikes (as in The Empire Strikes Back), then I'm in!

    [EDIT] Didn't mean for that to sound like namedropping. You can friend him too. Really cool guy, motojouralist, and he engages with people.

    I'm sorry but I can't let this go. Speederbikes were in Return of the Jedi.

    They also were in the prequels. Darth Maul had a pretty sweet ride.

    Well, Sir Christopher Lee was ominous and excellent as somebody in something... Pretty sure he had a lightsabre.

    And yes, I blaspheme. It's sacralicious!

    You're probably thinking of this one: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Captain_Horatio_Hornblower
    I can't say how heavy his sabre was. Probably not more than 2 pounds, which is pretty light.

    Someone who writes about motor vehicles when they are supposed to be listening to a trial.

    Listen up kids. Pay attention to your keyboarding teacher or people will make fun of you :p

    I hate it when that happens---
    Plus, if you make fun of someone, you just KNOW, in the back of your head, that they're GONNA find something to get you back.....
